Should we even create a section about the realism or lack thereof in a fantasy setting?!
Here, we're not talking about THAT kind of realism, but a DIFFERENT kind. Perhaps it would be more accurate to call it the consistency of what's happening rather than realism.

And who can explain why Necromancers have 3 moons in their castle? Maybe it's because they stand at the border of 3 worlds, or maybe it's a transitional stage between life and death? I just can't understand it! :confused:

I don't understand it either. Probably so we can see the city in this darkness.

Probably, they wanted to convey something with this, but what?

What vile creatures are these Necromancers!

I thought the three moons symbolized the body, spirit, and mind, respectively. In Necropolis, they exist separately from each other. :smile24: As for the realism of the castle locations, maybe we should remember the age-old question: how can angels and demons coexist in the same army? In my opinion, every nation simply has dissidents, even the undead!

Well, you can't categorize the body, spirit, and mind as belonging to necromancers. You could stretch it and say the body, but the spirit is a biblical term, and humans don't have it after death. The mind also doesn't fit with necromancers. Necromancers are driven by a mania for dominion and Thanatos! Perhaps the mind belongs to the heroes who command hordes of the undead!

I only counted 2. And the moons symbolize: spirit, mind, and body. For each, a moon – this most likely indicates that the 3 planes are not functioning; the necromancers have broken them down into their components, and that's why they raise the undead.

Did the Necromancers create the world? And can they control the moon, the earth, and the soul?

There are 3 of them: the smallest, the medium, and the huge one (almost covering the entire background).
What planes are you referring to?

To understand, you need to read the history of Ashan. They worship the goddess Ascha - the mother spider, the dark aspect of the dragon of order. So, most likely, Ascha granted them this ability. And besides, it was either Nival who came up with it, or Ubisoft gave the order. So, the questions should be directed to them.

Magnus you are contradicting yourself! You say there are 2 moons, but you provide 3 symbols.

But where can I read it?

I saw 2, but maybe I was wrong, so I think there are probably 3.

Well, you can find the history of Ashan on the Nival website. Part of it can be learned from the game and forums.

I think it was better in Heroes 4 – the landscape determined the appearance, and mages could live in caves (what’s so strange about that – a flying city can float under the arches!), but the REAL NONSENSE is the Dungeon faction on the surface! Well, mages are mages, their city is enchanted – that’s why it floats, and the view from the inside is like that, but dark elves can’t hang stalactites in the sky! Besides, inside it’s always a cave...

P.S.: Maybe a little off-topic, but: HOW can you upgrade Princesses of the Rakshasa into Rajahs of the Rakshasa in the Academy castle? If I can understand training or changing them (like gargoyles or golems), but changing their race – I’m sorry, but that’s…
